As a child she appeared in two Norwegian films, one of which, ''Maja Steinansikt'' (1996), she co-starred in. Before deciding to devote herself to music as a career at around the age of twenty, Nilsen was a ballet dancer. At that time she turned to a "secret notebook full of songs that she had been compiling since her early teens" to express herself as an artist.〔 Nilsen first performed publicly at ''Den Gode Kafe'' (The Good Cafe) in Oslo, April 2007. In October 2008, Nilsen won a competition among new artists sponsored by the Norwegian record label, Grappa. In awarding Nilsen the prize for best debut artist, the jury described her as having "the courage to write simple, personal and intimate lyrics in Norwegian". As part of the award, Nilsen received a record contract which produced 2009's ''Vi som ser i mørket'' (''We Who See in the Dark''). As a voice actress in Norwegian-version feature films and television, Nilsen played Carmen Cortez in ''Småspioner 2'' (''Spy Kids 2: The Island of Lost Dreams''), Lisa Simpson in ''The Simpsons Movie'', Haru in ''Katteprinsen '' (猫の恩返し ''Neko no Ongaeshi/The Cat Returns''), among others.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Siri Nilsen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
